Spring has sprung

It's here! Although I ushered in the season by watching The Hunger Games premiere at midnight, it has been much lighter and fresher since then. Today I enjoyed my favorite spring sandwich: avocado, monterey-jack cheese and sprouts!

Also, I'm on Spring Break! Finally! Although my week of three tests in 24 hours nearly killed me, I have survived and am finally catching up on sleep and cleaning! I feel revitalized and fresh for spring!

The Hunger Games

Finally finished reading The Hunger Games! Although it was entertaining and held my attention for the majority of the story, it wasn't exactly high-quality writing or something that I could get completely lost in. I'd recommend reading it if you have free time for a quick, non-challenging read and aren't looking for something of stellar literary quality. However, I do think it will make a very enthralling movie (seems like it was written with a movie version in mind) and I'll definitely be excited to see it when it comes out! Here is the official trailer.   

 

Last day of break

On my last day of break, I enjoyed a relaxing day full of food. 

My parents came up to Boulder and we enjoyed a nice snowy afternoon at a nearby coffee shop with hot chai and adorable truffles (from left: white chocolate decadence, Gran Marnier, mint, and sea salt caramel). I have started reading The Hunger Games in anticipation of the upcoming movie, and got a decent portion read today.

This was followed by a delicious sushi dinner, my absolute all-time favorite food. I was absolutely stuffed...

...but I still had room for dessert! Moshi-covered ice cream balls. The pink were strawberry flavored, the yellow mango flavored, and the green green tea flavored. Super yummy. What a delicious end to a great break!
